In a Friday memorial service at Scott Field, former mascot Bully XVIII, also known as Dontae, was honored for his life and contributions to MSU team spirit. Owned by 1987 alumnus Greg Daly of Flowood, formerly Atlanta, Georgia, he held the coveted mascot title 1999-2001. Following the ceremony attended by President Mark Keenum and athletic director Greg Byrne, Dontae's ashes were scattered over the midfield area.
